Hahaha those were the days. I clearly remember siting alongside Gino on the Test room desks.. 10 of them in a line. From Memory position 1 to 5 was smoking and then from 6 to 10 was non smoking. Like that made a difference, as you would look along the line of us sitting there and you would often see clouds of cigarette smoke rising up as ash trays were filled next to you. There were so many things we got up to that I could not mention as I would imagine that one could get into trouble if exposed !!!! hahaha. But trust me, we had many hilarious moments ,especially during the afternoon shift when we could monitor certain Telephone boxes outside the local pubs as some callers would call us in error instead of their home numbers !!!! The reactions from callers were unbelievable, often saying, Who are you ? !!!! Well say no more !!

Many other stories !!!! All of these things could never happen nowadays .
